Poll: Should Suspect Auctions be Outed?
Posted By: dennis
i would only out an auction if i were 100% sure it was altered or a forgery. 75% not good enough and can hurt a sellers reputation if you are wrong. so i vote A |

Poll: Should Suspect Auctions be Outed?
Posted By: 1880nonsports
only serves to bring it to light. Most if not all people buying something want to know if there's something wrong with the item that isn't disclosed. Only my wife knows everything. I don't see the harm in discussing for the benefit of all - attributes that appear inconsistant in a relevent auction if you are reasonably sure it's in question AND you know something about the issue. As for shilling I assume it's going on some of the time when I bid in auctions. I try not to let it bother me as I could never tell. If your view of the world is negative I suppose you go into every transaction as if you're getting taken. I prefer a lighter view. I don't condone it; but I don't let it eat me up either. An artificial reserve is just like an undisclosed reserve in some auctions. Part of life...... |

Good thread. I've actually changed my view of this from reading some of the thoughts here, and considering the concept of certainty. |

definitely, C, if that is the most liberal outing of an auction. Let folks know if a lot is suspect. |

One problem I have with this idea about outing an auction for shilling: |

I think we should have a separate poll for whether outing an auction do to probable shilling is better or worse for the seller. In this thread a few posts intimated that it was worse for the seller and he should be angry. In the other thread people were suggesting it was driving up the price, which is good for the seller. |

To me, shilling is of no consequence, I am a sniper. Therefore, it is not a reason to out an auction. |

I agree, that auction was not shilled. The major (in # of bids) bidder has a history of buying baseball cards. |
